Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition wherein a blood clot forms in the leg. To be able to identify the presence of the condition, nursing assessment skills and history taking together with critical thinking are important since symptoms may be similar with that of trauma. In this week's episode of the Nursing Show, the podmedic discusses the details in identifying DVT as well as interventions to prevent the progression of DVT into a more serious complication. These, together with the latest nursing news and links to resources are included in the show for a more comprehensive review.
